The stipendiary clergy from the Deanery will meet at The Gladstone Library (formerly St Deiniol’s) on 5th/6th March to look at how their churches may work more closely together in developing worship and in serving the people of the community at this difficult time. They would be pleased to hear from anyone who may have ideas for the future of their church and how it may become more effective in caring for the spiritual needs and growth of their parishioners and enhance the life of the community.
